Stearic Chlorination

New efficient vulcanization systems have been introduced in the market based on quaternary ammonium salts initially developed in Italy (29—33) and later adopted in Japan (34) to vulcanize epoxy/carboxyl cure sites. They have been found effective in chlorine containing ACM dual cure site with carboxyl monomer (43). This accelerator system together with a retarder (or scorch inhibitor) based on stearic acid (43) and/or guanidine (29—33) can eliminate post-curing. More recently (47,48), in the United States a proprietary vulcanization package based on zinc diethyldithiocarbamate [14324-55-1]... 

C03-0004. Write the chemical formula for each of the following substances (a) stearic acid, whose molecules contain 36 hydrogen atoms, 18 carbon atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms (b) silicon tetrachloride, whose molecules contain one silicon atom and four chlorine atoms and (c) Freon-113, whose molecules contain three atoms each of fluorine and chlorine and two atoms of carbon. 

Mass chromatography of mlz 146 and 148 and mlz 180 and 182 is shown to be highly selective for di- and trichlorobenzenes. These components are only present in relatively minor amounts. A mass chromatogram at mlz 88 showed the presence of the rather volatile compound dioxane. This sediment sample obviously is heavily polluted with non-biodegraded mineral oil fractions and a number of other components (i.e. stearic acid, chlorinated benzenes), which point to spills of numerous bulk chemicals. 

In an alternative approach the substrate is adsorbed first on the solid. Thus when stearic acid is adsorbed in a monolayer on alumina and exposed to chlorine or t-butyl hypochlorite in tetrachloromethane at - 35-20 °C, a selective chlorination is obtained with formation of mainly co, co-1 and co-2 chlorostearic acids75. Similar results are reported for silica-supported stearic acid76. The selectivity observed is significantly improved compared with the results obtained with V-chlorodialkylamines as chlorinating agents77 or with direct chlorination in a homogeneous system78. 

The variety of substances used as additives in polymers is considerable. For example, the fillers may include china clay, various forms of calcium carbonate, talc, silicas (diatomaceous silica), silicates, carbon black, etc. The impact modifiers typically include other polymers. Plasticizers include certain polymers with low (oligomers), dialkyl phthalates, dialkyl sebacates, chlorinated paraffin waxes, liquid paraffinic fractions, oil extracts, etc. Heat stabilizers include heavy metals salts such as basic lead carbonate, basic lead sulfate, dibasic lead phosphite (also acting as a light stabilizer), dibasic lead phthalate, stearates, ricinoleates, palmitates and octanoates of cadmium and barium, epoxide resins and oils, amines, diphenylurea, 2-phenylindole, aminocrotonates. The antioxidants include tris-nonyl phenyl phosphite, 2,6-di-ferf-butyl-p-cresol (BHT), octadecyl-3,5-di-terf-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate, etc. The UV stabilizers include modified benzophenones and benzotriazoles. Processing lubricants include calcium stearate, stearic acid, lead stearate, various wax derivatives, glyceryl esters and long-chain acids. Fire retardants include antimony oxide, some pyrophosphates, etc.

When heated with a small amount of chlorin, bromin or iodin under pressure to 270°-280° (518°-536° F.) for several hours, oleic acid is converted into a mixture of solid fatty acids containing 70 per cent, of stearic acid.

On steel substrates painted with the chlorinated PVC enamel containing the optimal amount of stearic acid, experiments were performed on the adhesion of glass particles (Tables VIII.5 and VIII.6). The data in VIII.5 refer to detachment of the particles by centrifuging and those in Table VIII.6 to detachment under the influence of an air stream in a wind tunnel.

The reaction of chlorine in flour with unsaturated fatty acids, which are also alkenes, yields a number of fatty acid chlorinated derivatives (dichloroacids and chlorohydroxyacids). Chlorohy-droxyacids are formed preferentially with chlorine dioxide. For example, oleic acid produces 9,10-dichlorostearic, 9-chloro-lO-hydroxystearic and 10-chloro-9-hydroxystearic acids. From linoleic acid the corresponding disubstituted derivatives of oleic add or tetrasubstituted derivatives of stearic acid are formed. Their content in flour, depending on the amount of chlorine used for bleaching, is given in Table 11.14. Chlorinated fatty adds are also formed in the fat of chicken carcasses that are cooled in chlorinated water after slaughter. 

Semicompatible plasticizing polymers such as chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), vinylchloride graft polymers and inorganics such as stearic acid-coated calcium carbonate are also used for impact modification of PVC. 

Hu et al. encapsulated chlorine e6 (Ce6) in stearic acid-grafted chitosan micelles [76]. The size of micelles was 270-300 nm and they could contain 5-20% Ce6. They were stable spherical nanostructure in aqueous condition and enabled sustained release of Ce6 over 12 h. Importantly, they could enhance the uptake of Ce6 to A549 (human lung cancer) and HeLa (human cervix carcinoma) cells, and showed high phototoxicity, proving their potential for cancer therapy.
